tip is a tip calculator application for iOS.
Submitted by: Angela Dimon
Time spent: 10 hours spent in total
The following required functionality is complete:
- User can enter a bill amount, choose a tip percentage, and see the tip and total values.
- User can select between tip percentages by tapping different values on the segmented control and the tip value is updated accordingly
The following optional features are implemented:
- UI animations
- Remembering the bill amount across app restarts (if <10mins)
- Using locale-specific currency and currency thousands separators.
- Making sure the keyboard is always visible and the bill amount is always the first responder. This way the user doesn't have to tap anywhere to use this app. Just launch the app and start typing.
The following additional features are implemented:
- Settings view where the user can change the tip percentages and set to dark or light mode.
- Reset button where user can reset tip percentages to the default of 15%, 18%, and 20%, and reset bill field.
- Added a tip splitting feature to divide tip and total.
- Styled the UI a little bit.
Here's a walkthrough of implemented user stories:

This was my first time using Xcode and Swift so it was a little bit challenging to learn from scratch. I had fun adding a settings view and learning about defaults. Styling the UI was challenging for me since I couldn't get dark mode to work with any colored background (so I chose gray instead). I'm looking forward to learning iOS!
